Looking for a good solution to cover my TV between the speakers. Cant move it

I used to put a wool blanket over my TV to see if could hear a difference and I did. Now having the front plane of my speakers about a foot out in front of the TV screen makes it more a subtle difference, than an appreciable difference. So, being lazy, I stopped using the blanket.

There may be another solution other than a blanket over your TV, but others here with more experience will need to chime in.

All the best,

Years ago I made a free standing wood frame and added foam acoustic panels in it. I covered it with bleached burlap to make the appearance tolerable. It was at the time a 42” and was more centered in line with the tweeters. I now have a taller cabinet and a 55” and the same speakers, but the tweeters are on the same plane as the bottom of the screen. I angled the TV forward a bit to bring the line of sight more perpendicular to the screen. That in itself helped quite a bit, if possible maybe you can experiment with height of screen and angle.

My solution was to replace my TV with a projector and motorized screen. That won’t work for everyone as it requires being able to make the room dark for watching tv but the end result is truly amazing! Almost the best of both worlds really. Watching tv and movies on a very large screen with high end 2 channel audio with incredible imaging is in many ways better than surround sound. It allows for optimizing your 2 channel performance while also having an incredible movie/TV experience. I have no desire for surround sound with all the compromises it requires of your 2 channel setup. (Been there done that)
Theo makes a good point about changing the angle of the TV. Depending on the TV mount you may be able to tilt it up or down to direct the reflections up or down instead of right back at the listening position while listening to music then tilt it back to watch TV.

Good luck!

Put a curtain rod above and in front. :)

You know, another approach is to put absorbent panels to the sides of the TV, as well as making sure the floor between and behind the speakers have absorption.


Acoustics aren't all linear. A lot of it is more about the duration of sounds, so if you can't directly address a problem (like making the TV screen absorbent) you can compensate in other indirect areas.
